Common Nepali Quotes

Here we will learn some common daily Nepali quotes that you can use on different occasions, and later we will touch upon some specific quotes for special days. Let’s get started.

1. Even In Solitude, Silence Stays, Like A Loyal Supporter, With Its Unbroken Presence.

Translation: एकान्तमा पनि, मौन रहन्छ, एक वफादार समर्थक जस्तै, यसको अभंग उपस्थिति संग

Starting off with a profound quote given by Santosh Lamichhane, Ēkāntamā pani, mauna rahancha, ēka vaphādāra samarthaka jastai, yasakō abhaṅga upasthiti saṅga, is a quote filled with the brutal truth of life. It is a phrase from his Nepali poetry collection which gives out a deep look into reality. If you read carefully, it talks about the silence that exists in our souls and life. It stays like a loyal partner no matter where we end up and how we live.

2. The Purpose Of Our Lives Is To Be Happy

Translation: हाम्रो जीवनको उद्देश्य खुसी हुनु हो

Another significant quote given by a great personality, Dalai Lama, Hāmrō jīvanakō uddēśya khusī hunu hō, is something we all need to follow. As the quote goes, it talks about one’s purpose in life. It indicates that whatever we do, we should do it to bring us happiness. Every individual does things to bring happiness and be jolly in life. It also means that being happy is the only way to live a prosperous life. So, the purpose of one’s life is to find ways to be happy. Experience things to be satisfied.

3. Those who dare to fail miserably can achieve greatly.

Translation: नराम्रोसँग असफल हुने हिम्मत गर्नेहरूले ठूलो उपलब्धि हासिल गर्न सक्छन्

If you need something to motivate yourself and lift your mood, Narāmrōsam̐ga asaphala hunē him’mata garnēharūlē ṭhūlō upalabdhi hāsila garna sakchan is the correct quote for you. Whenever you feel afraid of losing or taking risks in life, remember that only those who dare to risk it and fail brutally can stand up again and win strongly.

Mistakes and failures are a part of life. If you sit back with a scared mind, success will never reach your doorstep. The first thing a person needs to do to understand the value of success is to try and fail. Failure is not the end. And as the quote says, only if you dare to fair as cruelly as possible will you be fit to win as victoriously as imagined.

4. You Only Live Once, But If You Oo It Right, Once Is Enough

Translation: तिमी एकपटक मात्रै बाँच्छौ तर सही सँग बाँचेमा एक पटक नै पर्याप्त हुन्छ

People always complain about their lives and keep counting the bad days. But as Mae West says, Timī ēkapaṭaka mātrai bām̐cchau tara sahī sam̐ga bām̐cēmā ēka paṭaka nai paryāpta huncha, instead of thinking about a second life or wanting to live a different life, one should think about the present.

Even though you only live once, if you do the right things, think the right way, and correct your wrongs in your current life, that single life would be enough. So, the core idea is to live to the fullest by doing it right. If you want a fulfilling life, live the life you are in by being active and achieving good.

5. Twenty years from now, you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do

Translation: अबबाट बीस वर्ष पछि तपाईले गर्नुभएका कामहरु भन्दा तपाईले नगरेका कामहरुबाट तपाई धेरै निराश हुनुहुनेछ

As the quote says, Ababāṭa bīsa varṣa pachi tapā’īlē garnubha’ēkā kāmaharu bhandā tapā’īlē nagarēkā kāmaharubāṭa tapā’ī dhērai nirāśa hunuhunēcha, twenty years from now, in your future, you are more likely to regret and be disappointed with the things that you refrained from doing rather than the things you did do. Humans often tend to restrict themselves from taking risks as we fear regretting them in the future. But if we don’t do it, we will not experience it, and without knowing it, there will be no value. One should not overthink and always try to do new things in life.

6. Don’t Let Yesterday Take Up Too Much Of Today

Translation: हिजोलाई आज धेरै लिन नदिनुहोस्

We tend to get stuck in that past when we do something wrong. However, as the quote goes, Hijōlā’ī āja dhērai lina nadinuhōs, never try to overthink history. If we keep worrying about what we did, we will never know what to do. Whatever happens in the past should remain in the past. The only way to achieve something is to learn from it and move on to a greater goal. If you let yesterday, your past, take too much of your present, you will only get stuck in a loop of thoughts that will restrict your progressive actions.
